It's been three days since Felix sent the letter, and Lind is leisurely waiting for her purchases to arrive.

At the end of Potions class this morning, Snape called him to his office in the evening to catch up on Potions class, and it seemed that this was the time to learn Occlumency in the future.

During this time, Linde reined in the initial state of indulging in "Apocalypse of the Tide" and returned to self-study in spells and transfiguration, but his progress was much slower than before.

He felt that he would only be able to finish the second-year course a month or two before the end of the semester, and to be honest, this progress seemed impressive, but in fact, it was more than enough.

Compared to the above, Hermione, Snape and the others, Snape don't need to say much. Hermione's words, if he remembered correctly, the Transfiguration she performed O.W.Ls the exam was rated as N.E.T.Ws level.

And Hermione basically took the exam in all subjects. It's not right, it seems like there's something ...... She didn't take the divination class or what class, it seems that it was because she didn't like the teacher very much.

He couldn't remember exactly what it was, but he was a little shocked when he thought about Hermione's future achievements.

After dinner in the Great Hall, Lind packed up and went to Snape's office.

Standing in front of Snape's office, he took a deep breath and straightened his clothes.

I want to forget something very important!

Such an idea suddenly occurred to Linde's mind, but he could not remember anything, as if an animal had an intuition about danger.

Knocking lightly, Linde slowly pushed open the door and walked in. Once again, in this deep, dark room.

The disgusting and pungent smell of various drugs penetrated Linde's nostrils, and there were hundreds of glass bottles on the wall shelves, containing different animal and plant specimens.

"Close the door behind you, Augustus. I remember saying that some herbs are not suitable for light. Snape's voice sounded mournfully from the darkness.

Lind hurriedly closed the door behind her. When he turned again, Snape was seated at his desk, where there were a few small floating candles. It was one of the few lights in the room, and those rays only served the things of this range.

Lind walked over and greeted Professor Snape first, only to be interrupted in the middle of his second conversation, as if they were meeting for the first time.

"Needless to say, you are indeed very polite and cultivated, which is not suitable for an eleven-year-old person." As he spoke, the wrinkles on Snape's face seemed to deepen.

"It's like putting on a mask, which makes me a little curious...... "Snape looked a little closer.

At this time, Linde finally remembered what he didn't remember at the beginning!

In the original book, when Snape taught Harry Potter about Occlumency, he directly invaded Harry's brain.

If he did the same to himself......

How did you forget that, oh my!

Thinking about it, Linde's face was silent, but he began to think in his heart that there was any way to directly stillbirth this course.

Pushing back on Snape and making him lose the idea of teaching himself......

Or find a way to make today's lesson all theoretical, and then find a way not to come after that......

Lind thought to himself, sweat sliding down his sideburns.

Snape, for his part, continued.

"Truth be told, if Dumbledore hadn't allowed you to learn this magic and motioned for me to teach you, you wouldn't have been taught by me until you died." Snape said as usual.

"Augustus, although you have behaved ordinarily in Potions class, judging by my interactions with other professors, you are not stupid, so I hope you better stop asking questions about what I said."

"Do you understand?" Snape looked at Lindh.

"Oh, okay!" Linde reacted and replied with feeling. However, Snape was not very pleased with his slow reaction, and his speech was even more somber.

"You offered to learn this spell, and it seems that you have some knowledge of this spell.

But I think it's just something one-sided. Snape gave him a mocking look.

"Occlumency—As the name suggests, this magic prevents the mind from being invaded and affected by magic. This illustrates the most significant effect of Occlumency. It creates a wall in your brain that outsiders can't get into.

Of course, this is relatively shallow. Occlumency, in addition to the outside, can also be internal.

Learning Occlumency means you can manipulate your own memories. This means that if you have something you can't forget, you can use this spell to keep it in mind.

In the same way, if you have any unpleasant memories, you can also delete them. Of course, this is a big no-no for Occlumency. Because deleting memories defeats the original purpose of Occlumency.

Occlumency was created to help wizards maintain their "selves" throughout their magical journey. ”

At this point, Snape glanced at Linde, "You know what 'id' means! ”

Linde nodded hurriedly, which was basically the same as he had learned. One of the reasons why Occlumency prevents the mind from being invaded and affected is the "control and organization" of memory, of course, this is one of them.

This is also based on the reverse cracking of the Regent's Mind Mantra.

Seeing that Lind did understand, Snape nodded in satisfaction. Then he asked Linde

"What do you think you should do to practice this spell?!"

"Eliminate distractions, restrain desires, and concentrate." Linde said as he thought.

"There's a lot of theoretical knowledge, but there's one more important thing you haven't said.

It's all about letting go of feelings. Snape said.

"There is no happiness, no anger, no disappointment, no greed and jealousy. When you let go of these emotions, it's hard for someone to try to hack into your head. ”

"But Professor, no one should be able to completely abandon their emotions, right? And neither you nor Dumbledore seem to be completely emotionless! Lind raised her own questions.

Hearing his question, Snape smiled disdainfully, "Your first question, it's true that no one can completely block out feelings, but the more you can be 'objective and calm', the fewer flaws you will have." If you have a bit of brain, you'll hear me say 'hard' instead of 'impossible'! ”

"Second question, to be honest, I didn't expect you to ask such a stupid question at first. Do you think Professor McGonagall needs to keep thinking about turning a toothpick into a needle?

Do you think that Professor Flitwick still needs to chant a mantra slowly like you do if he wants to release a clear spring?

Most of the casting criteria are designed to make it easier for beginners to learn.

It seems that you are no more than that. Snape made no secret of his contempt for Linde, but Linde really couldn't refute it.

Who made the family a half-blood prince!

"Remember, Augustus.

The standard is only applicable to weak ...... Beginner. ”
